This document is a letter from the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York to Judge Richard Berman, arguing against Jeffrey Epstein's motion for pretrial release. The government details Epstein's extreme flight risk due to his vast wealth (over $500 million), international ties (Paris, Virgin Islands), and private aviation access. It also highlights his danger to the community and obstruction of justice history, citing recent wire transfers to potential witnesses and the discovery of lewd photographs of minors in his home. The government argues that his proposed bail package, including home confinement and private security, is inadequate.
